Topography Soils Elevation (m) Soil groups Prepared by: Office of Environment & Heritage, Queanbeyan. Project and technical coordination by Owen Maguire. Digital Aerial Photograph 150 - 180 Grey, Brown and Red Clays Interpretation undertaken by Cameron Paterson and Marg East. Hard copy map layout by Tobi Edmonds and Rob Armstrong. Mapping was 180 - 200 Red Brown Earths based on the interpretation of ADS40 aerial photography flown in September 2007. Polygons were captured at a scale of 1:6000 with a 200 - 250 Red Earths minimum polygon size of 1 ha (OEH 2011). It is therefore possible to use this mapping at larger scales such as 1:25,000. This work has been 250 - 300 Red Podzolic Soils assessed and found to have an overall user accuracy of 86% (Ecological 2009, GHD unpub). Plant communities have been classified using 300 - 350 Red-Brown Earth - Yellow Solonetzic the NSW VCA (see Benson et al. 2006, 2008). NSW VCA communities have been grouped in the Legend according to the NSW Vegetation Classes and Formations (see Keith 2004). VCA plant communities form part of the NSW Government's assessment tools such as the Property 300 - 410 Siliceous Sands Vegetation Plan (PVP) developer and the Biobanking Vegetation Types database. For more information on NSW VCA plant communities go to http://www.rbgsyd.nsw.gov.au/science/Research/vegetation_of_nsw.
